A session-topping million-dollar yearling, Good Magic was named Eclipse champion 2-year-old male after an effortless win in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile (G1). On his road to the Kentucky Derby, he captured the Toyota Blue Grass (G2), eventually finishing second to Justify on the first Saturday in May. He notched his second Grade 1 victory in the $1,000,00 Haskell Invitational at Monmouth.

“We had a gorgeous Good Magic filly last night at 9:50 p.m. She has a great frame with lots of substance, solid bone, with a very pretty head,” said Yvonne Schwabe. “An excellent foal, we are delighted.”

“Yvonne and Teddy have been close personal friends for a very long time,” said John G. Sikura, president of Hill 'n' Dale Farms. “We have never taken their support of our stallions for granted and it couldn't be more fitting that we announce that Curlin's next important son, Good Magic, sired his first foal in Canada at their farm.”
